hi everyone,

just wondering which note will be worth more or harder to get!

assume both are exact same denomination and type but one is

in solid number and the other one is a '1234567'?

I hope this is not a stupid question but I always have this in mind :P

thanks very much for your help

but I'm sure the '1234567' will be worth more than anything like '87654321'
or '0123456' or '2345678' and so on!

Obviously there are more solids in a prefix than the ascending ladder 1234567, but I think I would still want the solid #, and from what I have seen the solids always go for more than the ladders and above book.
The catalogue also shows solids as being higher priced

thanks for your reply but in your opinion which one is more rare; the ascending ladder note or the solid number note? seems like I've seen more solid than the ladder notes
running around the market :P

True only an opinion, but again the ladder is likely more scarce but that doesn't always make something worth more....always supply and demand

you're absolutely right, the value of an item always determine by
supply and demand even it is scarce.
so even something is 1/1 out of  this whole world but if nobody wants,
it still worth nothing,  ;D

Is a ladder more scarce?
there should be one of each per million notes:

                 0123456
1111111   1234567
2222222   2345678
3333333   3456789
4444444   
5555555   5678910
6666666   6543210
7777777   7654321
                 7891011
8888888   8765432
9999999   9876543
                 9101112

So to me the solids look a little scarcer, and with the solids you have the aesthetics.
8's are a premium due to the Asian luck factor, and its also a rotator.
1's would be a rotator too.
9's should have a premium since it's the last in the bundle and likely damaged from the banding.

the original question I assumed was the ladder 1234567 not all of the other ascending and descending ones?

You said that all 1's would get a premium because they are rotators.
But in the Charlton Cat. (pg. 371) it says...

"The middle digit must be 8 or 0, and the remaining digits must be 0, 6, 8 or 9." It dosn't say 1. Just thought I would mention that.  ;)

By the way I am not saying this to cause any problems, just to clear that up.

I would have a better idea now
